About the model
As early as 1968, eager to anticipate the specific needs of NASA, Omega started to work on improvements to the Moonwatch.
At the same time, new technologies and new functionalities were appearing and becoming more popular: automatic winding on chronographs, day and date indication, then quartz and other innovations.
Always at the forefront of research, Omega gradually introduced these novelties in its various ranges, and notably on the Speedmaster.
After the Mark II, the second evolution, logically named Mark III, integrated the caliber 1040, an automatic chronograph with a date function.
In addition to the blue dial, it was also produced with a black and a silver dial.
